Hazards Associated with Thrombolytic Treatments

One of the major side effects associated with Yaz, Yasmin, and Ocella use is the development of blood clots. To combat this life-threatening danger, a doctor may treat a patient with a thrombolytic drug. These drugs are used to break down blood clots. However, there are many potential adverse health effects associated with these drugs.

Problems Linked with Clot-Breaking Medications

Many of the side effects linked to Yaz, Yasmin, and Ocella may make the use of a thrombolytic drug dangerous. This can force a physician to choose between an effective, but dangerous, thrombolytic drug treatment or a less effective, but safer method of remedying a blood clot. Some of the following concerns make thrombolytic drugs particularly dangerous:

Cerebral hemorrhaging

Likelihood of allergic reaction to the drugs

Previous use of thrombolytic drugs

Use of a antihistamines

Especially in cases of cerebral hemorrhaging, which can occur while a woman is taking these birth control medications, thrombolytic drugs can make the bleeding worse. This can create the conditions for a hemorrhagic stroke, which can cause serious brain damage.
